Gyrotonic training – the most complete exercise system around.

In my (very biased) opinion, GYROTONIC® training is the most brilliant exercise system ever created. Being a certified instructor since 1999 will definitely create a bias. As much as I really enjoy yoga, weight training and kettlebells, Gyrotonic training is my number one choice and passion. It’s physical fitness at it’s most refined.

5 pieces of equipment, 1 system of motion

The five pieces of equipment are the Pulley Tower Unit, the Jumping Stretching Board, the Archway, the Leg Extension Unit and the GYROTONER®. The same principles of movement are used on each piece but each piece asks your body to be in very different positions. You’ll move all your joints through all their ranges of motion, usually with resistance. I find Gyrotonic training to be a nearly limitless system that can help almost anyone reach their movement and fitness goals.

Know your “why”. It’s the only real source of power.

Have you thought about why you’re doing the exercise you’re doing?

“Our only hope, our only peace is to understand it, to understand the `why.’ `Why’ is what separates us from them, you from me. `Why’ is the only real source of power, without it you are powerless.”
– The Merovingian

Yes, I’m a giant nerd for quoting The Matrix Reloaded but it’s a good quote and one that I totally agree with. Why do you do what you do?

Yin and yang transform each other: like an undertow in the ocean

Quick tip: Like yin and yang gradually trade places with each other

I like to remind people that we are 3 dimensional creatures. If you put your fingers on your sternum, that isn’t your heart center. That’s the anterior view of your heart center. Your heart is 3 dimensional. It has thickness.
